Allow setting some personal information for an account.

Currently the name and phone number(s) can be set. It's possible to set a
lot of information about a Yahoo! account that can be set for an XMPP
account, but the list looked too huge for me. So I just picked the ones
that I thought could be useful. Someone might want to know about the
birthdays too ... I don't know.

Someone should test this on Yahoo! JAPAN (why not 'Japan', by the way?)

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the HOWTOs in the
"Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
